What's growing

The phlox are beautiful along the front walk.


The grape hyacinths are lovely under the oak tree and in the back by the bird bath.


The newest peas are not up nor are the potatoes.

Pear trees are all leafed out now. The redbud is still blooming. Some of the lilacs are starting to bloom. Daffodils are very done.

We have a freeze forcasted a couple of times in the 10 day forecast.

The latest starts in the egg cartons are coming up. The beets that didn't come up the first time are sprouting with the peas and potentially some other lettuce too!
